Written by Sarah J. Maas

Narrated by Khaya Fraites, Full Cast, Kit Swann and 9 more

"Sarah J. Maas's CRESCENT CITY series begins with House of Earth and Blood: the story of half-Fae and half-human Bryce Quinlan as she seeks revenge in a contemporary fantasy world of magic, danger, and searing romance.

Bryce Quinlan had the perfect life–working hard all day and partying all night–until a demon murdered her closest friends, leaving her bereft, wounded, and alone. When the accused is behind bars but the crimes start up again, Bryce finds herself at the heart of the investigation. She'll do whatever it takes to avenge their deaths.

Hunt Athalar is a notorious Fallen angel, now enslaved to the Archangels he once attempted to overthrow. His brutal skills and incredible strength have been set to one purpose–to assassinate his boss's enemies, no questions asked. But with a demon wreaking havoc in the city, he's offered an irresistible deal: help Bryce find the murderer, and his freedom will be within reach.

As Bryce and Hunt dig deep into Crescent City's underbelly, they discover a dark power that threatens everything and everyone they hold dear, and they find, in each other, a blazing passion–one that could set them both free, if they'd only let it.

With unforgettable characters, sizzling romance, and page-turning suspense, this richly inventive new dramatized audiobook fantasy series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Sarah J. Maas delves into the heartache of loss, the price of freedom–and the power of love.

Adapted from the novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!

Reviews for House of Earth and Blood (2 of 2) [Dramatized Adaptation]

[Veronika Zagar · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

Did not finish, the story might be good but I was too distracted from all the audio effects to be able to concentrate on the story. Personally I prefer 1, max 2 voices in an audiobook.. but that might be just me considering the amount of stars for this production.

[jason lewis · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This was an excellent 2 part book. The acting was well done, the sound effects added instead of detracted from the story. I would recommend this to any adult that would want to read a fantasy action/ romance. However, I do feel like this title has a few times of overtly sexualized language that is not really necessary and truly detracts from the story as a whole. I am not a prude, but because of this, I cannot recommend it to any young teenagers.

[Sarah Sharpe · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

The performance added so much to this already epic novel. The story itself was dramatic, real, full of fantasy, history but also … life and love. Fantastic.

[Tamika Keese · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Blew me away! It's got twists I totally didn't see coming. Loved it

[Sara Cervantes · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Finally! Not the untrained princess to the rescue who just so happens to save the city. But an actual trained daughter of a legend who tried to hide the fact she was royalty. I loved it.

[saab BL · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This production elevates the book potentually. When I read the book I skipped a lot because it was too long. That lengthy feeling was not there by listening to this Audiobook. And I cried at the Emotional bits. Woah! Bryce Quinlan is still not my favorite heroine in the s j maas universe. But then again I did neither liked Feyre nor celeana after book 1. So it remains to be seen. Defenitly gonna listen to the 2nd book.

Very engaging graphic audio. A work of art. Interesting world building, slow burning with the final chapters revealing and explaining a lot.
